It's definitely a good idea. As well as improving privacy by pretending
to be a service provider which uses batching, it may also be practical
just because CoinSwap takers will want to slow down the process for
greater privacy so that an adversary would have to search more of the
blockchain to attempt to deanonymize them. Also, by being prepared to
wait longer the takers will also save miner fees.
